How long do they take to ripen enough to pick? I'm trying to get into growing small plants like mint and peppers
@PepplesPotager
@PepplesPotager 2 ай бұрын
It's about 90 days to ripen for these, but I think I put these 2 plants in the container at the beginning of June, so it's about 75 days since I planted them.

You are right. I sometimes I pick them early just as they are changing color and let them ripen indoors. There is no loss of flavor from picking them early at the breaker stage.

@jennymartin8448 I have found that it does not affect flavor. Once they start changing color, they are as sweet or tasty as they would be if you left them on the vine.

@@PepplesPotager Oof! 100? We've been 90+ (with oppressive humidity). I probably should water every day but it's so labor intensive as I have no outside water source and I have to haul it all from inside. I just don't have the physical ability. Gotta figure something out! And I have raised beds as well. Didn't dawn on me until today that they might dry out faster!

Good video. I've never been able to get Blue Lake beans to grow, but after watching this video I'm almost tempted to try again. They never germinate for me. Some say you should soak the beans before planting, I've tried planting the beans straight out of the package, and I've tried soaking them 4 hours, or soaking overnight before planting. Not one has ever germinated, ever. I'm in Virginia, and I've planted them in mid or late May so it should be warm enough.

@@PepplesPotager Last year was my first attempt to grow habaneros, so I'm answering based on my limited experience & research, but my understanding is that habaneros (and other Chinense peppers) grow even more slowly than other peppers (the Anuums, for example). So they're small for a long period but catch up if your growing season is long enough. I'm in zone 6a (now 6b) and start my peppers on March 5th (usually), to transplant out around May 15th. Last year, I was still waiting for my habanero plants to produce when the first frost rolled around. Disappointing, to say the least! To address this for or habaneros/other Chinense peppers, I will sow seeds in February (possibly late January) moving forward.

@@PepplesPotager Definitely on the later side! Lol. Of course, last season was wacky with all of the Canadian wildfire smoke, unseasonably cool temps and extra rain that came with that. I wish I'd had a chance to sow on time this year because the other factors are much better so far this season. I do think a pot is a great idea and that's how I'm planting all of my peppers now.
